On American Idol Monday night, the top 11 contestants took part in the "Judges' Song Contest," during which each contestant picked one of three song choices to perform without knowing who chose the song.
When it came to contestant Noah Thompson, two out of three chose John Mayer hits and, ultimately, Noah chose Mayers's "Heartbreak Warfare." However, following his performance, the 20-year-old construction worker from Kentucky guessed the song choice was from judge Katy Perry, which turned into a somewhat awkward moment.
“Noah, I feel like maybe you should Wikipedia me,” a wincing Katy deadpanned, before she exclaimed, “I can’t talk anymore! I'm triggered!” and mock-fainted under her desk.
What Noah probably didn't know is that Katy and John dated from 2012 to 2015, and even put out a song together. Later, while critiquing Noah, she quipped, “Who is going to pay for my extra hour of therapy?”
In the end, we found out that it was actually Luke Bryan who chose the Mayer song, while Katy was the one who had chosen a John Denver song.
"These guys are against me," stated Katy, while Luke responded, "Just wanting to see Katy navigating the waters."
- Katy, what'd you think of that performance?
KATY PERRY: Who's going to pay for my extra hour of therapy?

NOAH THOMPSON: (SINGING) Clouds of sulphur in the air, bombs are falling everywhere, it's heartbreak warfare.
KYLIE MAR: Following his performance, the 20-year-old construction worker from Kentucky guessed that the song choice was from Judge Katy Perry, which turned into a somewhat awkward moment.
KATY PERRY: Noah, I feel like maybe you should Wikipedia me.
NOAH THOMPSON: So it's a big no? A big no?
KYLIE MAR: See, what Noah probably didn't know was that Katy and John dated from 2012 to 2015 and even put out a song together.
KATY PERRY: It's all a great song, you did great, but I can't talk anymore.
NOAH THOMPSON: That was my educated guess. Oh my God, dude.
KYLIE MAR: After Katy felt triggered from hearing her ex's song and proceeded to hide under the desk, we found out that it was actually Luke Bryan who chose the song. But the fact that both Lionel Richie and Luke chose a John Mayer song--

There's a few reasons why astronomy enthusiasts keep tight-lipped about their aurora borealis predictions. One, saying it's going to happen means it won't (or so the superstition goes). Two, sightings are notoriously hard to predict, requiring a perfect recipe of solar activity to be visible. Three, conditions can change rapidly, and no one wants to overpromise and under deliver. So let's just say, according to the latest data (seen here and here), this weekend looks encouraging. "We are coming

Asked whether the Yukon will formally adopt these targets, Clarke didn't provide a definitive answer. "We anticipate we will reach 25 per cent set aside, even prior to 2025,"
